Looking for F.U.N. or equivalent trained diver

[scubashawn123]

I thought D.I.M.W.I.T. stood for "Doing It My Way In Texas". When did the usurpers subvert the true meaning? Although this one is not too far off either.

Details and more details..............

Where is that DIMWIT manual anyway? Anyone seen Zinc?

If we only had that manual we'd know for sure.

I'm thinking about having Texdiveguy and Timeliner over to sit in my garage while I film them waxing poetic about what it means to be a DIMWIT. That and making up derogatory names for all those non-DIMWIT divers.

HEY! We need a protected area here on Scubaboard so people can't say anything bad about us! That's a GREAT idea!!!!

TSD is where great idea's begin. May you work diligently to achieve the aspired goal you have set for yourself and Scubaboard participants.

Sure your not already certified?

My cert should arrive any moment.

I've been waiting 3 years to finally use this Lonesome Dove quote on SB! Thanks Shawn!

"FUN?? What do you know about FUN, Woodrow, you never had none your whole durn life. FUN is my department."

Hey! That's MY quote! Larry McMurtry used my words totally out of context (we're from the same town). Next time I see him crossing the street, I'm going to be sorely tempted to bump him with my truck.

Part of the F.U.N. pre-requisites are:

Who is This Course For?

The F.U.N. Fundamentals Course is designed primarily for recreational divers that want the most out of their diving. Incorporating F.U.N. principles into their normal recreational activities allows individuals to optimize diving F.U.N. and safety. Technical divers that wish to incorporate F.U.N. principles into their diving will also find a great deal of useless information, as well as the absurd skills they will need to master to be successful in the F.U.N. Tech 1 class.

1. Breathing capable Scuba Diver, all divers welcome
2. Completed application packet on file including medical information, release forms, and dive history_keep this in your possession never release to F.U.N. organization to protect your privacy

You do realize that "Lonesome Dove" is not only the greatest western writing, casting and filming ever done, its also the correct Texas grammar for the past tense of "solo dive"
